The driving distance between Knoxville, TN and Nashville, TN is approximately 180 miles. The driving time would be approximately 3 hours if you were to travel non-stop in goodâ¦ driving conditions.
If you have a thrown rod, you will have a loud rhythmic banging noise that changes frequency with the engine RPM speed. The sound will be quite like the sound when banging two hammers together. You will also have extremely low or no oil pressure.
You're there to hear the noise, I'm not... but... A rod (bearing) doesn't normally just go bad between shutting the engine down at last use and firing it back up. The CH15 uses hydraulic lifters, and if one of those gets stuck the engine will rattle like rocks in a metal can. I'm not a believer in fuel and oil treatments as a general practice...
